- I was finishing my studies in Spain when the opportunity arose to lead Glovo in Croatia.
- In America, we currently employ more people than in Croatia.
- America is the largest market in the world, but also the most demanding and competitive.
- It was an unreal feeling to open the Museum of Illusions in the middle of the Strip in Las Vegas, next to the Cosmopolitan and Bellagio.
In the new episode of the podcast, Lider’s journalist and host Roko Kalafatić talks with Teo Širola, the president of the Museum of Illusions, the largest chain of private museums in the world, which opens its doors in some of the largest and most popular cities, from Europe to the United States.
Širola started his career as a consultant in corporate finance at Grubišić & Partners, working on mergers and acquisitions in Croatia and the region. After that, he built his experience, among other things, as the CEO of Glovo for Croatia. Since entering the Croatian market in 2019, Glovo has expanded to more than 20 cities in the country, while the popular delivery app has been adopted by every fourth citizen of Croatia. At the end of 2021, Širola transitioned to the role of COO of the Museum of Illusions, later taking on the role of president of the company. The Museum of Illusions is one of the most successful Croatian export products, aiming to open as many as 100 museums by the end of 2026. Discover the story of the global development (and challenges) of this domestic brand in the new episode of Lider’s podcast!
